| 5:23pm | This anime fan forever looks back on 2007 | | | | Jesus, it’s the end of another year. I’ve had fun in 2007; being a part of the anime blogging community and writing for you, dear reader. I’m not sure I’d last long if it wasn’t for your comments, but here we are, almost two years on and still talking, ranting, in love with anime. Back during... | | |
| 2:38pm | 2007 Summary | | | | And so it’s finally time to say goodbye to 2007. It’s been another great year, and what way to close it off better than with the obligatory end-of-the-year-rankings and -awards. Like mentioned before, this post has turned out a lot bigger than last year now that I’ve had multiple days... | | |
| 1:00pm | Best of 2007 Anime Awards, Day 6 - Music & Voice Acting | | | | Up to this point the awards have mostly been silly and nonsensical. The final two days of our award show, however, will be a little different. We’re putting aside the random awards in favor of a few more traditional categories. Today we’ll be talking about the best the year had to offer... | | |
| 3:53am | Michael’s 2007 Diet Awards, Part 1: The Winners |  | | | Yes, it’s time to do the year-end award list, like everyone always does! I did one last year, barely two weeks into the founding of this site’s predecessor, Scattered Cels, and I’m going to be using most of the same categories–as well a couple of new ones. And, in tomorrow’s... | | |
| 10:33pm | 2007: Year in Review |  | | | 2007 IMO was a interesting year for anime IMO, as I felt that it didn’t reach the hights of 06. Despite this, I thought that there was a return to anime that were based on manga, then anime being original. Best Male Lead: Lelouch Lamperouge (Code Geass) Runner Up: Li Sheng Shun aka Hei (Darker... | | |
| 8:56pm | Review: ef-a tale of memories–Do You Remember Love? (93%) | | | | It is like a dream: a series of moments both strange and memorable, passing through the filter of the mind’s eye that, with a little direction, arrange themselves into patterns and meanings whose sum is greater than the parts. This series’ melange of art, memory, dream, and sorrow is a... | | |
| 2:06pm | Nominees in for ~Most ‘The manga is soo much better’ show~ Vote Now!! | | | | The second poll is up—Most ‘The manga is soo much better’ show—please vote now in the poll to the right. In terms of nominees, Claymore came an easy first with 7 nominations, followed by Negima!? And Bokurano, each with two. The rest only received one nomination each…hmm, doesn’t... | | |
| 5:54pm | The 15th Day of Christmas - 10 Anisongs | | | | "Yes, I was really frustrated they took Nagato's SG out of Guitar Hero III. And Eddie Knox."I like to rant a lot about music in anime, first because I've been a Dance Dance Revolution addict since the original PSX port, and second because I can't play it with any resemblance of much more than a cacophony... | | |
| 8:00pm | 2007 in 12: day 2 | | | | Day 2: Uninstall, uninstall The series that launched a thousand flamesmainly in the direction of the hapless director, it has to be said. The choice of Hiroyuki Morita as director for Bokurano was an unexpected one considering the feelgood family-friendly nature of The Cat Returns, and as it turned... | | |
| 9:37pm | Romeo x Juliet Review - 58/100 | | | | Gonzo on one hand they search the borders of anime and storytelling, and work with greatly original premises and on the other hand, we have this; generic premises that only stand out in their mediocrity. While others may have loved it, all I saw was a dull, predictable story and annoying characters.... | | |
| 2:23pm | Dennou Coil - A Circle of Children - 26 | | | | Ah, thank god. For a minute, I thought that the ending for Dennou Coil would end up rushed, but thankfully the series gets closed with one final powerful climax that nicely finished the series. Obviously, the ending itself doesn’t match up to some of the other series of the spring-season: Bokura... | | |
| 7:03am | November Summary | | | | + November Rankings + My general opinion of the current Autumn-Season is indeed that it isn’t as good as the previous Spring-season. There haven’t really come any epic series yet, like Bokura no, Towards the Terra or Kaze no Shoujo Emily, but instead of that, we’ve got quite a lot... | | |
| 3:59pm | Myself; Yourself 09 - Our hopes and expectations |  | | | Or, black holes and revelations, which is my take on how Myself; Yourself is going to resolve itself. Trust Muse to know better. I read three dissenting opinions on M;Y today, and I can’t help but wonder if it’s an inevitable by-product of blurring the boundaries of the genres, which also... | | |
| 10:48am | Gundam 00 - 08 | | | | I admit: the political roots of this series have been quite interesting, and they’re a good reason to watch this series, but the creators do need to put more effort into the characters. As usual, my main problem is with Setsuna again: he yet again surpassed his stupidity with this episode, when... | | |
